# Best Crosley Record Players (2026) Source: https://turntablenest.com/best/best-crosley-record-players Publisher: Turntable Nest. Our score is an editorial rating out of 10 (fit 35%, features 25%, build 20%, value 20%), not a customer rating. Method: https://turntablenest.com/how-we-research#our-score Crosley sells dozens of record players, and the model names (Cruiser Plus, Voyager, Discovery, Scout) mostly look alike in a search. The differences that matter are few: suitcase or full-size plinth, whether the player plays 78 RPM records, whether it has auto stop, Bluetooth in or in and out, and whether the cartridge can be upgraded. Suitcase models are the easy, low-cost way to start with built-in speakers. The step-up models add a heavier platter, a better tonearm and an Audio-Technica cartridge. This guide compares seven current Crosley models by those points, so you can pick the one that fits your records, your room and your budget before you look at colors. ## Picks ### 1.
